The Wreaths Across America mission to Remember, Honor, Teach, is the foundation behind all the organizations efforts.
Throughout the year, local volunteers have been tirelessly working to make certain that families, loved ones and heroes get honored and remembered for the holidays.
However, the challenge was doing so in a way that is consistent with safety and in compliance with local COVID-19 recommendations and mandates.
Anna City Commissioner Martha Ann Webb has made it a clear priority to try to get every veteran in the Anna City Cemetery a wreath.
To insure the continuance of this year’s program in the Anna City Cemetery, modifications have been made to ensure the continuance of National Wreaths Across America Day, which is planned at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 19 – and more importantly to show the families of the nation’s heroes just how much their ultimate sacrifice is appreciated.
